I have nothing but words of praise for your sister. It's people like her with high principles that stick to them that make this world a little better. I wish the world was filled with similarly minded people. Tell her there's lots who are right behind her, proud of her stand. Maybe the next time something like that comes up, she'll think of us & feel better about having to confront someone. My only regret was that it took such a toll on her. I hope she doesn't suffer because of it.
I'm sure word will get out (it always does) & other parents will express their gratitude too. Stupid, bloody principle!! - his brain (what there is of it) sure isn't connected to his heart. It's because of people like him that I home schooled my sons till they were old enough (high school) to be able to confront teachers when their principles went against what was said. I'm glad I did. They're all young men now with firm principles & high standards.
